FEMALE PAUPERS lLL-TREATED.

LYNCHBURG, VA, February &c.
The Daily Advance this evening pub
fishes the following startling sensa.
ton from Amherst Court House |:
"Since the adjournment of the
county court the community has been
much excited over the horrible con.
dition of the county poor-house, as
developed upon investigation by the
grand jury. Eight members of the
jury visited the poor-house and were
Mortified by the discoveries made.
The female inmates complain Of treat
ment too appalling to be described
aud abuse from Superintendent Sid
ney NJ Dawson which it is hardly
possible to believe. 1t is question
able if such a den of infamy could
be found elsewhere. The poor wo.
men were almost naked, and one
was discovered in a cold room with
out fire, wearing only an old calico
wrapper. Vermin and filth were
found in every department, the odor
of which was sufficient to cause pes
thence. The county authorities fur.
nsh the superintendent with bad
clothing for the use of paupers.
But the grand jury found only five
blankets, and all of them we're in
possession of a mulatto woman,
favorite of the superintendent. 1t
was also discovered that nameless
crimes were Systematically carried
on TO such an extent that it wss
dangerous for respectable depend.
ants to be sent there. The grand
jury, Disguised, reported the facts to
the court, recommending the remov-
al of the superintendent and his ar
rest, which the court ordered imme-
diately. There is much excitement
in the county over these frightful
discoveries.

EXCURSION TO WASHINGTON. -
The B. & O. r. r. announces an
Excursion to Washington from all
es, east of Ohio River, for Tuesday,
March LIST, at the low rate of one fare
for the round trip. Tickets will be
good for return passage until Satur-
day, March 5th, inclusive.
Washington is city full of interest
to the people at all times and it is
particularly so during a session of
Congress. There is no city in the world
so well paved, we'll built or adorned
with so many statues and objects of
art. The superb Capitol stands match
less as the consummation of the archi-
tect's genius and skill; the Washing
ton Monument cleaves the air at a
height farther from the earth than any
other structure ever reared; the
Smithsonian Institution holds within
its walls the greatest collection of OBJ
jects of general and historic interest
ever gathered together; the Corcoran
Art Gallery, a palatial building filed
with works from the brush and chisel
of famous masters these are but few
of the attractions which invite the
visitor. The long limit of the excur-
sion tickets permits a visit to Mt.
Vernon, the home and tomb of Wash
ington Arlington, the splendid seat
of Gen. r. E. Lee; the National Sol
diers' Home, and many other places
of interest in the immediate vicinity
of Washington.
This is rare opportunity to visit
the Capital City at a pleasant season
and at small expense.

rhe Reggnr. OF london.

Street providers of the male sex may
be classed in two distinct categories, the
pertinacious and the quietly respectful.
To the former belong the hullSing young
fellow with bunch of groundsel in his
hand, by way of protest against being
run in by an over officious bobby
and the seedy individual who sidles mys-
teriously up to you with the request that
you will ''spare copper for a pore
man." keeping pace with you for 100
yards or so, and bestowing divers UNI
complimentary epithets on your hard
heartedness in the event Of re-
fusal. The latter class includes the az
parently bewildered stranger in Lon
don," who stops to ask the nearest way
to Putney or Barnet, as the case may be,
and the decently dressed but apocryphal
mechanic, who has either Just come out
of hospital or solicits your influence
with the authorities to get into one.
Then there is the portly Frenchman,
who may be met with any day in the
vicinity of Charing Cross, and who has
been wounded at Gravelotte or taken
prisoner at Sedan; and the old crone, a
fixture In Garrick street from TO
z in the afternoon, who levies black
mail on every well-dressed pedestrian,
and only wants a crutch to sit for the
portrait of the malevolent nag issuing
nightly from the chest Of the merchant
Abudah; nor must the pseudo-cabman
out of work be forgotten, whom you
never saw before in your life, but who
distinctly remembers having ''druv"
your honor many and many time, and
modestly suggests that the loan of half
crown would quite set him up again. -

Mind Reading sen.lbly Estimated

The power of mind reading is doubt
less not an uncommon one and Is closely
allied to the knack for reading character,
which is quite common, and to the usual
processes by which we detect lies and sus-
picious persons, or avoid being imposed
upon. Stuart Cumberland believes that
the process might be of actual use in de-
tecting criminals, and once succeeded in
doing this himself. The operation Of
muscle reading is a very fatiguing one,
and the thing is apt to be overdone by
amateurs. Mr.. Cumberland ; experiences,
as told in The Nineteenth Century, are
important, because they win aid in di-
vesting these psychic tricks of the mys-
FERROUS character 50 commonly ascribed
to them, and in directing popular thought
into more rational and healthy channels.

None of the senses are more easily de-

bahama Nsrros. in New Yorl..

A very familiar face in our domestic
service is that of the West India negro
getting to be. The better order of BAHIA
ma house servants began coming here
some years ago, and they have become
quite acclimatized by this time Excel
lent servants also come from Barbados.
They are Clearly, intelligent, good hui
mored and pious. Hot temper is their
only serious fault. The women are su-
perb cooks and the men make the best Of
personal attendants, albeit given to taking
things a little too easily. This does not
apply to portable property, however, for
they are honest enough.
It is curious that the portions Of the
British West Indies, namely Barbados
and the Bahamas, that breed the best
class of negroes are vastly overpopulated.
The common people live in absolute
penury, and though starvation is proba-
bly, unknown their fare is of the humblest
and their prospects the most hopeless.
The best Of these people are finding their
way north in considerable numbers, and
the households of New York absorb them
as soon as they land. They work for a
few years, save their wages and go home
and buy a cabin and plot Of ground 10

they drift through life in what is to them

The .romato Pack, for 1889.

The American Grocer furnishes some
interesting figures concerning the ''to-
mato pack of the year, showing to what
enormous proportions this comparatively
new industry has grown. The total pack
for the year is 1893, 760 cases of two
dozen cans each. The total for 1885
was 1,434, 006 cases; and the average for
the past four years has been 2,190, 381,
showing that the pack of 1886 is very
much above the average. New Jersey
takes the lead in the business, nearly
one-third of the total pack coming from
that state. Delaware comes next, and
then New York. Michigan contributed
33, 165 cases to the mass. 1t will be
gratifying to consumers as well as pack.
ers to learn that all the old packed goods
have gone into consumption, and that
the spring will see the stock lighter than
it has been at any time for six years.
Although the goods are warranted to
stand in any climate and last lifetime,
everybody prefers them reasonably fresh
and modern. Detroit Free Press.

things are true then the perpetrators
of such crimes should be punished,
if every soldier of the government is
ordered out. 1t matters not who the
guilty parties are, or with which pc.

hand of justice should be laid upon
them with a weight that would es.

In Japanese hotel the kitchen is al.

leaving our shoes behind, walk upon the
soft mats in our stocking feet. Imme-
diately servant brings tea and q tray Of
tiny cups, without saucers; then tobacco
and small firebox, for smoking pur-
poses. Now all the visitors in the house
and all the neighbors who can crowd in
have arrived, and are in our rooms and
are examining us.
We think we would like to wash our
hands and faces and then have something
to eat, so we clap our hands three times,
and a servant screams s'hi, and soon
appears, bowling, and asks what we want.
We call for water, which is brought in q
large bucket with q wooden handle, and
a fiat copper basin, which are placed on
the front veranda. There we perform
our additions, in full view of the crowd
in the street below US. Little tables,
about as large as small napkin, are
placed before each ON the floor. We
order rice, which is brought in q small
tub with bright brass hoops. We ask for
eggs, and they bring thirty for four per-

and the visitors look at us and then at
each other and smile admiringly. Cor.

A Genial Restorative.

Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are emphatic
ally genial restorative. The changes which
this great botanic remedy produces in the
disordered organization are always agreeably.
though surely progressive, never abrupt and
violent. On this account it is admirably
adapted to persons OF delicate constitution
and weak nerves. to whom the powerful min
eral drugs are positively Injurious. That II
initiates those processes which result In the
re-establishment Of healthful vigor is con-
spicuousy shown in cases where 1t Is taken
to overcome that fruitful cause OF debility,
biliousness and constipation. Thorough d.
gestion, regular evacuation and abundant
secretion, are results which promptly and in
variably attend Its systematic use. It is, be-
sides, the best protective against malaria, and

GRAVE CHARGE.

The charge has been made that Mr..
Camden, or his friends for him, has
subsidized the press-of the State so
far as it could be done. Some peo-
pie include certain Republican
papers among the suspected ones.
The Romney Reuieo of last week
has the following: "The fact is, ace
have been approached with cor
rupt offer ON the part OF Camden's
managers and manipulators, have re
ceiyed direct proposition for the
support of the Reuie,c for Mr.. Cam
den in advocacy of his reelection to
the U. s. Senate. They struck the
wrong man, as they were very soon
and emphaticalIy made to under
stand.n
We can see no ground for doubt
ing this statement. We believe the
editor of the Rerie,c to be far above
connecting any such story, and it
must be either pnre fabrication OF
the truth. FIT is true, there is GER
tainly good reason for Republicans
to refuse their aid to elect Mr.. Cam
den. We have no question as to
what they will do. In our view the
one Republican, Whitaker, of Ohio,
who voted for him made a moral and
political mistake which he will live
to regret if he lives much longer.
The Democrats have it in their
power to elect or to appoint a U. S.
Senator. Upon them hould the re-
sponsibility rest.-Keyser Echo.

REPR00F.

Love does not always heal with balm;
The surgeons knife some anguished
wounds must bare
For oft their poison balks the tenderest
care
That lies within the touch of PHYS palm.
Who keeps for love a sweet unbroken
calm,
Like breath of some novitiate's cloister-
ed prayer,
Nor brooks the storm that frets the
tranquil air,
And sends discord quavering through
its psalm,
Belittles love. That love is truest, best
Which bravely learns to face all Bit
ter things,
And vet in answering wisdom's high
behest
Forgets no word OF its sweet utterings ;
And even as perforce it yields the knife
Recalls with its fond kiss to stronger life.
